Top Gear is the UK's premier motoring show. Consistently BBC TWO's most-watched programme, it attracts audiences of nearly four million each week. It could be said to be ultimate boys' club, but also one that through its t... more &raquoone and style is accessible to everyone - 40% of viewers are female. Irreverent, witty and unbiasedly honest, the Top Gear team, led by Jeremy Clarkson, take cars to the limit and beyond to find out if they're any good or not. Full of stunts, challenges and special features, Top Gear is self-deprecating, inclusive and passionate - there no boring stats and impenetrable conversations about camshafts and tire pressures. Instead you get authoritative information, entertainment and style. Jeremy Clarkson, host of Top Gear, brings you Heaven and Hell, a critical review of the best and worst cars in the automotive world. Clarkson trawls the whole of ?car-dom? to bring you seven great cars and truffles the undergrowth looking for seven automotive disasters. The good ones the Ferraris, the Porsches and the Aston Martins are driven to within an inch of their lives on the track. The bad ones are killed. Sawn in half. Hung, drawn and quartered. Theyre hammered and blown to pieces with dynamite and their skeletons left in the open to rot. Theres even some time for a game of car jousting.&laquo less

Movie Reviews

"I love Top Gear, I watched almsot all of the episodes from the first season in in 2002.

Top Gear Season 10 is very good, but the DVD isn't as good, the original airing of season 10 is better than this DVD.

The problems are:

1. News segments are non existent or missing, there is maybe only one episode with the Top Gear news.

2. The music, Top Gear season 10 had great music in the original UK airing, on the DVD all the music is replaced by a bad music probably because of copyright issues with the original music, no matter the reason, this reduces the enjoyment of the episodes.

3. Region 1 DVD, why would you make it a region 1 DVD? Should have made the DVD region free.

4. No extras as far as I can tell, there's only the show, no behind the scenes, no special commentary, nothing, it's just the show.

Imagine Jeremy Clarkson reviewing this DVD, he would point out it's flaws with no shame.

Overall Top Gear season 10 is fun to watch many times over, the cars are great, Jeremy Clarkson is hirlarious, despite the DVD flaws I'm happy I bought it because the video is in good quality and the show is really good.

I wish they will make more seasons available in DVD and hopefully the future releases will be at least as good as the original airings."

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I discovered this show on BBCA about a year ago, and can't get enough. The interplay between the three hosts, the wacky challenges (ie: sailing cars across the British Channel), the awesome cars, it all adds up into my favorite show on television today. That said, it is unfortunate that the producers of the DVD decided to cut out some material from the show; for what reason I cannot fathom. Still, this is the only show I've ever seen that has made me laugh so hard I cried. Plus, this season includes the Botswana episode, which was a fantastic bit of television and cinematography. The Clarkson: Heaven/Hell is OK, but not great. If you're not already a fan, I'd suggest just buying the Season 10 alone, until you're sure you like the humor."
